What I wanted to do: Send calcite and carbon to the surface of Nauvis and do the fuel processing there.
Then fill the thruster fuel and oxidizer into barrels to the space ship to refuel it a bit faster.

What happened: No barrel recipes in the assembler or Factoriopedia.

What I did expect: Barrel recipes for all the new fluids, also thruster fuel and oxidizer.

While fluids like Flouroketone Hot or Cold have barrel recipes, the other fluids are missing:

• Thruster fuel
• Thruster oxidizer
• Holmium solution
• Electrolyte
• Lithium brine
• Ammonia
• Ammoniacal solution
• Flourine (maybe?)

Does it happen always? Yes it happens always, also in older [2.x] versions the recipes were missing.


Screenshot with the liquids, showing that Flouroketone has a barrel recipe:

Hello, these things are not barrelable on purpose, (by the auto_barrel = false line in the prototypes)

Is there a particular reason not to allow these in barrels?

To keep them on their planet without writing new customs-check-logic for barrels in the spaceport
